Professional Profile

I am a product manager based in Limerick, Ireland, combining design, development, and strategy to create impactful digital experiences. I lead teams of frontend, backend, and embedded engineers, delivering products that align with business goals and provide real market value.

Creativity & Technology

With a background in fine art printmaking and graphic design, I transitioned from web development to product management. This diverse journey allows me to bridge creative vision and technical execution. Along the way, I’ve earned national awards for integrated marketing campaigns, recognising my creativity and strategic impact.

Leadership & Empowerment

I empower engineering teams by minimizing micromanagement and excessive documentation, fostering innovation and efficiency. My focus is on coordinating efforts, maintaining project momentum, and ensuring continuous product validation through regular client demos.

Design-Driven Problem Solving

Leveraging my design expertise, I create user prototypes to explore feasibility and usability. My skills span UI/UX design, web development, branding, typography, and illustration—enabling a holistic approach to product creation.

Lifelong Learning

My commitment to learning keeps me ahead of industry trends, while my passion for design drives me to craft innovative solutions.
